What are your current responsibilities working on client assignment?
Currently, I'm in a rotation between production support and development roles. In my production support capacity, I ensure the smooth operation of our application through daily monitoring, troubleshooting user concerns, and implementing change releases. Additionally, I handle ad hoc maintenance tasks such as environment patching and license upgrades. In the development role, I contribute to developing and testing new features for our cloud-based application during each iteration.
What projects have you worked on that you have found particularly interesting?
As part of the Trade Surveillance team at one of Australia's largest banks, my team has focused on creating and maintaining an application used by internal users to detect illegal and unethical trading practices. This project has been particularly engaging due to its significance in maintaining ethical standards within the financial sector.
